Ondo State Police Command, Police Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Abayomi

The Ondo State Police Command has dismissed reports circulating within Akure metropolis alleging the imposition of a traditional curfew, describing the claim as false and misleading.

The command said there was no such curfew in place and that no security situation currently warranted panic or apprehension among residents.

This was contained in a statement issued on Sunday by the State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Abayomi Jimoh.

According to the command, the rumour was being spread to create fear, confusion and unnecessary tension in the state.
